Generation of two human iPSC lines (UUIGPi013-A and UUIPGi014-A) from cases with Down syndrome and full trisomy for chromosome 21 (T21)

• Down syndrome (DS) is caused by trisomy for chromosome 21 (T21). We generated two induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from skin fibroblasts of two males with DS using Sendai virus delivery of OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, and c-MYC. Characterization of the two iPSC lines, UUIGPi013-A and UUIPGi014-A, showed that they are genetically stable with a 47,XY,+21 karyotype. Both lines displayed expression of pluripotency markers and trilineage differentiation capacity. These two iPSC lines provide a useful resource for DS modeling and pharmacological interventions.
